Indeed. The crack of the matter is how "illegal" is defined. M$Ft has gone length to demonstrate that if at all, their business model (and Intel's) has fostered computing by creating the economies of scale that have made the pc ubiquitous. It was not certainly Torwald, neither McSquealy.

It's an intriguing point defining what's legal and what's not, especially for folks that view things using senile governmnent officials' glasses or plaintiffs that have otherwise failed in business.
